  • From the Manse…. Happy St
    From the Manse…. Happy St. Andrew’s Day! As I write this piece for the magazine I am reminded that on this date is the ancient ecclesiastical feast day of St. Andrew, the patron saint of Scotland. Our country has been associated with this disciple of Jesus for very many generations and in so doing it allows us to reflect on what it means to be truly Christian. We know some important things about Andrew. First of all he was an ordinary man of his time, a fisherman along with his brother Peter. He was a man who knew what it was to work hard and in often difficult places to make his living. We know also that Andrew was a man who sought after truth - he listened carefully to the preaching of John the Baptist and was to discover that Jesus was to be the saviour of the world. Now one of the great qualities of Andrew is that he was willing to share the truth he learned with others. We know that it was Andrew who introduced his brother Peter to Jesus and that both became his followers. Andrew listened and heard the eternal truth Jesus taught and later when commissioned by Jesus to take out the message of Jesus’ life, death and resurrection he did so willingly. His Christian faith however led to his arrest and execution – his death by means of crucifixion, though apparently at his own request, not a cross as his Lord Jesus but on a Latin cross, a saltire. The saltire, of course, now embedded as the symbol of Scottish identity in the national flag.

  • Excerpt-Sing-Keith-Kristyn-Getty.Pdf
    PRAISE FOR SING! “The beauty of this book is how consistent it is with who and what the Gettys have been to the Church over the past decade. Their contribution is not significant because of the extraordinary but the ordinary. They are ordinary Christians who have made an extraordinary impact, not because of their musical or theological credentials, but because of their desire and willingness to devote themselves to the ordinary things. Sing! is an exposition of those ordinary things that have allowed the Gettys to be used by the Lord to bless, encourage, and provoke so many of us not only to ‘sing to the Lord a new song,’ but also to love and appreciate the old ones. May this practical, pastoral, theological, accessible, and delightful book help and bless many. May it encourage us all to Sing!.” Voddie Baucham Jr., dean of Theological Education, African Christian University in Lusaka, Zambia “Here is a book worth buying. Filled with biblical, practical insight that, understood and taken to heart, will revolutionize congrega- tional singing.” Alistair Begg, pastor of Truth for Life Radio and general editor of the Spurgeon Study Bible “Sing! is wonderful! It’s a treasury of lost principles discovered for a new generation of worshippers. Sing! reminds me and my family that God uses music and the Word to transform the world, and that our part in His process of renewing all things is to open our mouths.” Kirk Cameron, film actor and producer “With a rare combination of theological insight, the lessons shaped by years of practical experience, and remarkable readability, this book is simultaneously evocative, informative, and accessible.” D.

  • Dante's Lucifer in the Commedia: Music, Pride, and the Corruption of the Divine
    DANTE’S LUCIFER IN THE COMMEDIA: MUSIC, PRIDE, AND THE CORRUPTION OF THE DIVINE by Rosina P. Zimmer A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of The Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Florida Atlantic University Boca Raton, Florida August 2014 Copyright by Rosina P. Zimmer 2014 ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS “E tutte le nostre brighe, se bene veniamo a cercare li loro principii, procedono quasi dal non conoscere l’uso del tempo.” (Alighieri Convivio IV) “All our troubles, if we carefully seek out their source, derive in some way from not knowing how to make a proper use of time.” I would like to extend my sincerest gratitude to Dr. Kenneth Keaton for his guidance and encouragement during the entire course of this work and to Dr. Steven Blakemore, who was of invaluable assistance the reading of the proofs, along with his thoughtful suggestions that were pertinent to this work. In addition, I would like to thank Dr. Patricia P. Fleitas for her assistance and enthusiasm. I would also like to give a special thanks to Dr. Susan Love Brown, who, at the onset of this project, was Interim Director in the Public Intellectuals Program, and graciously offered me the opportunity to explore this topic. Inestimable assistance in my research was largely due to my association with Prof.ssa Teresina Ciliberti, of the socia della Dante. I am grateful beyond words for her direction and support. My deepest and most enduring debt is to my husband, Joseph Forbes Earl, who once again, has been most supportive and helpful in countless ways.
